N3uron SMPP Notifier configuration

N3uron node is managed through web interface by visiting http://localhost:8003 or https://localhost:8443/ URLs.

To login, enter default credentials. User - admin, password - n3uron. Afterwards you will be redirected to N3uron node window.

Next, navigate to Config -> Modules and create a new Module. Name it Notifier_1.

Near property Module type select Notifier value and click Save at the bottom of the page.

Now navigate to newly created module and create New Message in Model window. Call it Message_1

Next, at the Notifiers property click on . Add a New SMPPNotifier and call it SMPP_Notifier_1.

Let's configure SMPP_Notifier_1. Main changes are described below.

1. Enabled - enable the notifier by selecting Yes value.
2. Host - host of the SMPP server. In this case it will be RUT (public or private) IP address.
3. Port - port that will be used by the SMPP server. Default value is 2775.
4. System ID - this property specifies the username for SMPP server authentication.
5. Password - password used for SMPP server authentication.
6. Destinatary - enter cell phone number of the recipient.
7. Body - this body permits to include a text in the message. For this example N3uron test is used.

Apply changes by pressing button.

The final step is to add a trigger for SMPP Notifier. For simplicity a periodic trigger is configured.

Add New Periodic trigger. Name it Periodic_1.

1. Set Scan rate to desired period in milliseconds. Default value can be used.
2. Change Type to Fixed interval.

N3uron SMPP Notifier will now send messages to SMPP server.
Note: Since we are using trial (demo) license for N3uron's Notifier there is a time limit of two hours. Upon expiration , module will automatically stop running. This period can be reset by restarting the expired module (in this case - N3uron Notifier). The demo period may be restarted any number of times.

SMPP server configuration on RUT device

In this configuration example device RUTX12 is used.

To begin configuring SMPP server, login to your RUT device. Also, make sure device has mobile data connectivity for SMPP service to work.

Navigate to Services -> Package manager and install SMPP service.

SMPP configuration can be found in Services -> Mobile utilities -> SMS gateway -> SMPP. Values must match the ones set in N3uron SMPP Notifier.

1. Enable SMPP service.
2. Username as in N3uron SMPP Notifier's System ID.
3. Password as in N3uron SMPP Notifier's Password.
4. Server port as in N3uron SMPP Notifier's Port.
5. Modem - modem used to send SMS to the recipient.*

• - Modem option is available only on RUTX12 device.

At this point SMPP server is configured and recipient should receive an SMS with a body set in N3uron SMPP Notifier. In order to stop receiving messages simply disable the SMPP server on RUT device.
